just wanted to stop in and say hello,things are well with me..weight is always up and down..never a big increase.That only happened one time.I went up 25 lbs but it came off really easy.I dont know why...Im grateful though..im going to be 3 years post op in dec of 06. This is the best thing I ever done.. Dr.Gersin is a great physician.I wish he would have stayed in the area but I can understand him moving on to bigger and better things. Get your protien in..it helps. I still do 140 grams a day ..everyday..I drink 2 shakes a day and the rest I get with good food intake Have a nice night

Allen, Its nice to hear from a long term post op that is doing so well, it encourages me that its possible to maintain this weight loss. But I am prepared and know that its not going to be easy and I will always need to be on guard to keep those pounds from creeping back on. I work hard on getting my proteins in and find that when I am doing that well the weight seems to come off, and when I am not eating enough or so well I get stuck at times. We all know what we are SUPPOSED to do, but life has a way of getting in the way of that at times. I am happy to hear of your long term success and hope it continues for you. Have a great Friday and Great Weekend. Hugs Laura
